to the Albanian people and state. They have made positive contributions to the history of the last centuries in our country, especially during the National Renaissance and the Independence of Albania.

The traditional family, folk, and community flag of the Aromanians is among the oldest in the Balkans and Europe.
Symbols
The sun with eight rays and borders on three sides with red, yellow, and blue cords is a clear symbol of this people’s dedication to the sun as a source of life and warmth. This flag predates the flag with the Vergina star, which was only discovered at the end of the 1970s. Other flags of the Aromanians are those that have been used in their celebrations from pagan times up to the present day — white, yellow, red, and blue.
The Flag and The Sun
This symbol was the main one, brought out with ceremonies of song and music during the major Vlach celebrations, such as the Aromanian family wedding. The flag was adorned with flowers and three apples placed on the cross formed at the top of the flag. Apples are the fruit of love and eroticism, a symbolism originating from the interpretation of the creation of the world by Adam and Eve. The apple, the fruit of love, is a symbol also touched upon by the great Socrates. When Socrates went to take his wife as a bride, he carried a large red apple in his hand.
Contributions
The Aromanian minority has always made a distinguished contribution to Albanian society, and from this minority have emerged prominent figures in the fields of education, culture, science, sports, and more.

The Flag and The Sun
Ky simbol ishte kryesori që nxirrej me ceremoni kënge dhe muzike në festat e mëdha të vllehëve si ajo e dasmës familjare arumune. Flamuri pasurohej me lule dhe tre kokërra molle të vendosura në kryqin e krijuar në kokën e flamurit. Mollët janë fruti i dashurisë dhe erotikës që ka origjinën qysh nga interpretimi i krijimit të botës nga Adami dhe Eva. Fruti i dashurisë, molla është simbol i prekur edhe nga vete Sokrati i madh. Kur Sokrati shkoi për të marrë gruan e tij nuse, ai mbante në dorë një mollë të kuqe të madhe.
